THE COMEDY OF ERRORS 2008
19 June – 5 July
After the total wash-out summer of 2007, we knew we had to give GSC another summer to establish, and were thrilled when distinguished director Joanna Read agreed to come on board to direct Shakespeare’s roller-coaster farce, The Comedy of Errors.
This show sealed our reputation for invention and also introduced our audiences to actor Simon Nock who has gone on to appear in so many of our shows since.
“The cast are excellent...[their] sense of fun is infectious, the setting in the grounds of Guildford Castle idyllic” What’s On Stage, 2008
“…the company’s message is clear – have fun. They are clearly having a whale of a time, and so are we… their timing throughout is spot-on.” The Stage, 2008
